Liars and cheaters usually try to blame others when they get caught doing what they shouldn't, so the enlist armies of propaganda and legal folks to disprove that the earth is round.

You've just described 's FO, the Colts, and the Ravens.

The NFL is not the most savory business enterprise, but when you try to run rogue under it's watch, you're gonna get bitchslapped every time.

First time, got comprimsed by that scotch driking doofus.....the other 31 were'nt going to let it happen again. So the punishment is a bit of a make up for Spygate, and it should be because they got off very light last time.

Yes they had to......it's the only room not being filmed with a video camera? Now why is that? Every inch of the Razor is under camera view. Did you realize that?

They figured if they produced nothing.......then yet another strike. Just go deep down and see that you root for an evil empire.

Oh no...not an evil empire

I'm wondering what this guy is trying to accomplish he has not one word that we haven't heard endless times. Yawn.

Trying to convince us that his tires are unaffected by weather and temperature?

Myth #1: The NFL’s lawyers told Exponent to assume it took up to 9 minutes of halftime to complete the initial gauging of 11 Patriots’ footballs.
As the Wells Report concedes, “the analysis of the data is ultimately dependent on assumptions and information that is uncertain” (Wells Report at p. 12), and that “varying the applicable assumptions can have a material impact on the ultimate conclusions” (Wells Report at p. 13). Exponent’s conclusion that there was an available scientific explanation for the halftime PSI readings was undercut not by facts or science, but by assumptions given to Exponent by the NFL’s lawyers regarding the timing of events at halftime.

According to the NFL’s lawyers, just the gauging of the 11 Patriots footballs took up to 9 minutes: 2 to 4 minutes to start to gauge them and an added 4 to 5 minutes to complete the gauging. No records were kept of the timing of the halftime PSI measurements. Seven League officials witnessed the halftime events, but no interviews recounted in the Wells Report state what any witness said about when the gauging of the Patriots’ footballs began, how long it took, or when it ended. No simulations were done to see how long it might have taken to start and complete the gauging. The information in the Wells Report from the interviews of seven League and Game Officials present at halftime was that: (i) the first thing the Officials did upon entering the Officials’ Locker Room was to gauge 11 Patriots’ footballs; (ii) the Colts’ footballs were gauged sometime thereafter; (iii) only four Colts’ footballs were measured because the Officials “were running out of time before the start of the second half” (Wells Report at p. 7); and (iv) halftime lasted 13.5 minutes.

Information presented in the Wells Report reflects that the two minute average for measuring the Patriots’ footballs is very likely what happened. The officials hurried into the Officials’ Locker Room at halftime with a plan to gauge all of the Patriots’ and Colts’ footballs. They knew that time was limited and that they needed to act quickly. It takes two to three seconds to gauge a football, as confirmed by the highly-viewed video of a Game Official gauging a football before a 2013 Chicago Bears game, which video was part of a Peter King MMQB report. Further, it is a basic premise of the Wells Report (and of an Exponent study that appears as Appendix 2 to the Exponent Report) that one person, acting alone, can complete the following in less than 100 seconds: (i) enter a room; (ii) lock the door; (iii) take 12 footballs out of a bag; (iv) stick a needle in each of those footballs to remove air; (v) place them back into the bag; (vi) unlock and open the door; and (vii) leave the room. If all that can be completed by one person in roughly 1 minute and 40 seconds, it is reasonable to conclude Messrs. Blakeman and Prioleau could begin to gauge the Patriots’ footballs less than a minute into halftime and complete the gauging in two minutes — i.e., taking 5 seconds for each man to gauge each football. That timing would support Exponent’s conclusion that science can fully explain the PSI of the Patriots’ footballs.

Yeah, keep talking about other teams. Maybe next time it will be Antonio or Ben.

you sad asshats don't know what's going on with the poor kid. His latest stems from missing the tests, not actually testing positive. Steelers keep the kids medical under wraps as it's now being discussed that there is some major clinical depression going on with the kid which doesn't excuse his behavior but sheds light on why he's going through these issues.

Looks like he's done with Steelers if he's out for year. Next man up. We got lots of folks to throw too. When is bill gonna stop tasting his thumb after he takes it out of his rear when it comes to drafting and player selection?
